Leave the spectacles to Microsoft (especially is they are mostly for non-exclusive or non-Microsoft made games). Leave the true in-house development to their competitors. You dont need the biggest show, you just need airtime to show it off.

Considering that the VGA´s are right around the corner it would be wise to save big announcements for that and leave small announcements for the 14th thats why i said that.
You didnt need to go all defensive ...

I wasn't being defensive, I was just telling the truth. Sony's marketing was never all that great but it was just good enough to get the word out to just enough people. MS is the major marketing entity but when you look at their AAA development size in studio Microsoft needs it more because they depend on so many outside companies. While I wrote that I was actually chuckling.

I manifested my opinion without any intention to troll or mock sony´s marketing(wich i never said was bad)and suddenly my console(of choice) publisher gets bashed just like that...chuckles hey ?
|
When I responded to you, I had no idea who your console publisher of choice was. I was just laughing because Microsofts marketing is where the bulk of their perception comes from. A very strong entity indeed.
|
I see your point never tought about that,you still brought up MS unecessarily in a thread that should have had remained a discussion about sony devices and strategies.
|
As unnecessary as it might be, Sony would show a big game at a small show. They are just that type of company. They showed small games at a big show (LOL). They tend to just pick things in an artistic manner and mismatched timing rather than a wellplaced marketing style. I used Microsoft because they have bigger marketing events for games they dont even make, and it creates an illusion of having everything. Niche was already covered with the indies, hence why I said leave the spectacle to Microsoft. I should've also added Microsoft tends to show their product based on the size and relevence of the venue and audience. Its much more appropriate. I kind of wrote off Sony's marketing long ago. Its like some avante garde show or something.

I see you are right about sony showing small games at big events(totally forgot about that one) im seeing marketing trough microsoft eyes (so to speak) it makes sense for them to show small games but its in sony´s nature they like to mix things up and it adds a certain unpredictability,but i dont think it will be more than a teaser (if it so happens that they announce a big exclusive).
